This week, Scott and Karl read Dorothy M. Johnson\u2019s Indian Country, a collection of eleven stories showing a frontier alive with complex struggles. You may be familiar with two of her most famous stories, \u201cA Man Called Horse\u201d and \u201cThe Man Who Shot Liberty Valance\u201d which are included in this collection.\xa0

Scott says, "The sense of life that comes out of this book and right into your face is astounding to me. The character of the author is all over the thing, I couldn't imagine her writing anything other than a western.\u201d
